Alloys are on

My 18" alloys arrived over the weekend and smacked them on... Inovit Tarmac with Gunmetal finish...

Lowering springs should arrive today/tomorrow... get them on over the weekend and with the Exhaust system car is nearly ready....

I will be refurbing the original 17" alloys myself (real easy) and selling them on with original pirelli run-flat tyres complete with bolts and locking nuts if anyones interested...

lowering kit will make it look alot better and stance will look harder

love the darker look of the wheels with the car

Wheels are looking great, really suit the colour of the car well. Stripes sound the Bizz

Don't forget it's really for the Mrs

She's going to love it

Cheers guys... I wasn't too sure to go for Gunmetal or Black.. but was well surprised at how the alloys match the body colour... all for £470 inc delivery.... bargain!
